Micrographs and SEM images revealed that <b>6j</b> induced cell wall rupture and cellular content leakage. Biochemical and physiological studies indicated that <b>6j</b> might partially disrupt the antioxidant and photosynthetic systems in algal cells, resulting in morphological changes, cell wall rupture, and inclusion leakage. Our work suggests that <b>6j</b> has a distinct mode of action from CuSO<sub>4</sub> and provides a promising candidate for the development of new algicides, worthy of further investigation.</p>","PeriodicalId":18222,"journal":{"name":"Marine Drugs","volume":"22 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11595864/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142729505","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
